Camilla Morton provides a roundup of the Paris shows

Report by Camilla Morton on 12 October 2012.

Paris, home of haute couture, is the city that usually ties the whole season together with a frilly bow and that last ‘surprise’ moment. This season it was all about change. Even before the Spring/Summer season kicked off all eyes were firmly on Paris, notably the houses of Dior and Saint Laurent.

Kiki Georgiou on Rick Owens

Owens said he wanted to capture kindness and it was terribly kind of him to do so. This was a fantastic show, fantasy included, focused on a single silhouette, with so much for us mere Earthlings to wear.
